Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

A crater is a circular surface depression, usually found at or near the summit in a volcanic mountain.
A cinder cone is a small, conical hill (usually less than 450 m high), with a truncated top formed from cinders that accumulated during moderately explosive eruptions.
A caldera is a large, basin shaped depression that forms when summit material on a volcanic mountain collapse inward. These may fill with water to form lakes.
A shield volcano is a gently sloped, gradually rising volcano formed from effusive eruptions.
A composite volcano forms from an explosive eruption and formed by multiple layers of lava, ash, rock, and pyroclastics.
(These are the main landforms discussed in the text. Students may provide others based on outside readings or class notes.)
